Giovanni Battista Gaiani [Gajani]
(Bologna, 20 November 1757 - Bologna, 13 October 1819)

Italian organist and composer. He studied with Zanotti, Vignali, Martini and Mattei. Admitted to membership in the Accademia Filarmonica of Bologna as organist and then as composer in 1781-82, he was elected Principe in 1793, 1802, 1807 and 1815. He was organist and maestro di cappella at various Bolognese churches, including Santa Maria della Morte; in 1802 he played the harpsichord for the opera at the Teatro Comunale. Competent, but conservative and provincial, he was a composer of the late 18th-century Bolognese school derived from Padre Martini. The only trace of him outside Bologna is one sacred piece in the Cappella Lauretana in Loreto.
